This family of Percival (George) Acres disappears from Leicester after 1881. Can anyone tell me what happened to them. I have tried everything including emmigration but to no avail. They are:-
Percival (George) Acres aged 40 (dubious, possibly 50) B.London
Harriet Acres aged 31 (No marriage but poss' nee Buckland. B.London
Louisa Acres Aged 11 (poss' from marriage Carter/Buckland) B.London
George P Acres aged 5 (Birth cert' shows Percival George) B.Birmingam
Ernest Edgar Acres aged 5 (Have Birth cert') B.Birmingham
Ada Madeline aged 2 (Have Birth cert') B.Leicester
Claude P Acres aged 9mos B.Leicester

Percival George Acres (Senior) was a boot maker and is, I believe, one and the same as him with his previous family living in London in 1871.
I cannot find his death or his birth but I know his father was Edward Acres (artist).
P G Acres (Senior)was shown as aged 30 in 1861, 40 in 1871, both in London but aged 40 in Leicester.

The key things I would like to know is:-
When did P G Acres (Senior) die.
What happened to his family in Leicester.

I am reasonably happy about his London family.

I would be very grateful for any help.
Thankyou.
